Default Brake Pads and Transmission Fluid...

Hello,

My passenger side front brake pad squeaks A LOT!
What can I put on the brake pad to eliminate the squeeks?
How do I remove the brake pad, what do I put on it to make the squeel go away, and how do I put the pad back. I have 928 S4 brakes.

Also,

I have a 1989 951, what kind of trasmission fluid do you guys recommend, and how do I drain and fill the fluid?

Thank you.

There are brake shims for the pads, i use Mintex pads and made the squeel go away.

The amount of noise can vary greatly depending on what pad you are using!

Try Permatrex Disc Brake Quiet, it works great for my pads.

I'm looking for a recommendation on transmission fluid as well for my 89 with LSD, if anyone has any suggestions, please post.
